On Wednesday 26 August, Business Aviation Solutions Cessna 650 Citation VII bizjet VH-DHN called departed Hamo for Sydney before returning to its Gold Coast base.

Finally, a couple of other lighter aircraft that we've missed reporting on over the last couple of weeks that have also been noted around Hamilton Island Airport included Victorian-based Partenavia P.68C VH-PNV which touched down from the Sunshine Coast on Sunday 23 August.  It departed to Roma and Melbourne (Moorabbin) on Monday 24 August.

And on Tuesday 18 August, a Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Beech B350 Super King Air flying as "Dingo 47" performed a missed approach at Hamo before being later noted doing the same at Mackay Airport.
